Domain


A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority, or control on the Internet. Domain names are formed by the rules and procedures of the Domain Name System (DNS). Any name registered in the DNS is a domain name


Domain names are used in various networking contexts and application-specific naming and addressing purposes. In general, a domain name represents an Internet Protocol (IP) resource, such as a personal computer used to access the Internet, a server computer hosting a web site, or the web site itself or any other service communicated via the Internet.


Domain names are organized in subordinate levels (subdomains) of the DNS root domain, which is nameless. The first-level set of domain names are the top-level domains (TLDs), including the generic top-level domains (gTLDs), such as the prominent domains com, info, net and org, and the country code top-level domains (ccTLDs). Below these top-level domains in the DNS hierarchy are the second-level and third-level names that are typically open for reservation by end-users who wish to connect local area networks to the Internet, create other publicly accessible Internet resources or run web sites. The registration of these domain names is usually administered by domain name registrars who sell their services to the public.



Ideal Domain Length cheapest domain registration names with length 2-7 letter are often the most memorable for people while domain names over 16 are the one that are mostly forgotten or domain names people do not even bother to remember.


Domain Advantages Better for Advets and branding Quick to type, misspelling is rare Of course, memorable Easy to attract direct traffic or type in traffic (as others may call it) Allows you to have longer sub-directories domain registration services (e.g.: BB.com/keyword) to be displayed in Adverts and highlighted in SE results Value rises or is kept because short domains are scarce and are much more desired by domain investors Short domain requires less time to read, thus, people have the instinct to click on it as per seen Most likely to be considered as generic and not offend any other companies/parties or of trademark owners


Now, these are things that makes a short domain better. The only thing that makes a short domain not so advisable is that: It is costly, especially if you are to buy one. The money you used to buy it might be used for other more profitable things.
